Objectives: The association between cerebrovascular disease (CVD) and depression has been well described, but our understanding of various aspects of the relationship between these two disorders remains limited.
Method: Based on a selective literature review, this paper examines empirical evidence and discusses conceptual issues concerning hierarchical, interactive, and co-morbid relationships between CVD and depression.
Results: The concept of vascular depression minimizes the importance of the contribution of psychosocial factors. The interactive and co-morbid relationships have been largely neglected in psychiatric research. There is evidence that depression may increase the risk of CVD morbidity in patients with vascular disease and delay recovery in stroke patients, implying an interactive relationship. The concurrent existence of these two disorders based on common etiological factors such as genetic vulnerability, alcoholism and personality traits seems plausible.
Conclusions: A modified comorbidity model may guide investigation into the hierarchical, interactive and common etiological relationships between CVD and depression.

Background: Remnant cholesterol (remnant-C) contributes to atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), particularly in individuals with impaired glucose metabolism. Patients with impaired glucose metabolism and ASCVD remain at significant residual risk after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). However, the role of remnant-C in this population has not yet been investigated.

Parkinson's disease (PD) and insomnia are prevalent neurological disorders, with emerging evidence implicating tryptophan (TRP) metabolism in their pathogenesis. However, the precise mechanisms by which TRP metabolism contributes to these conditions remain insufficiently elucidated. This study explores shared tryptophan metabolism-related genes (TMRGs) and molecular mechanisms underlying PD and insomnia, aiming to provide insights into their shared pathogenesis.

Introduction: Older patients may be denied endovascular revascularization of the superficial femoral artery (SFA) for peripheral artery disease (PAD) due to concerns of worse limb outcomes than younger patients.
Methods: We assessed adverse outcomes in patients after an index revascularization stratified by age (age < 65, 65-75 years, and > 75 years) from two centers between 2003 and 2011 and followed a median 9 (25 %-75 %: 7, 11) years. Outcomes included major adverse limb events (MALE) or minor repeat revascularization, death, and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE).

Background And Purpose: DWI is crucial for detecting infarction stroke. However, its spatial resolution is often limited, hindering accurate lesion visualization. Our aim was to evaluate the image quality and diagnostic confidence of deep learning (DL)-based super-resolution reconstruction for brain DWI of infarction stroke.
